This Mushroom Box has been handcrafted from sterling silver, reticulation silver and copper.
The Mushroom Box contains a hollow stem for storing items. It is made with reticulated silver on the top of the mushroom and sterling silver on the base that has been oxidized to give it a dark yet shiny finish. The under side of the top of the mushroom is composed of copper that has also been oxidized.
I tried to make this item look as organic as possible.
The cap has a beautiful reticulated surface. The copper underside has has been scribed to give the appearance of gills. The stem has been hammered to add texture to the base and it is tapered to give even more detail to the wonderful mushroom.
There is so much detail in this piece you will be noticing something new each time to pick it up.
The approximate measurement of the mushroom box are:
41mm height (1.6 inch)
51.5 mm width (2 inch) cap
25 mm width (1 inch) stem
